A Noble Hunting Party: Dr. Syntax Sets Out from a Country Manor in the 1820s This evocative print captures the essence of a noble hunting party in the early 19th century, as depicted in the popular series of comic poems "The Busy Body" by William Combe and Thomas Rowlandson. The scene unfolds at a grand country manor, where Dr. Syntax, a humorous and bumbling character, prepares for a day's hunt with several distinguished gentlemen and an elegant lady. The doctor, dressed in his hunting attire, mounts his horse with the assistance of a servant, while the other gentlemen, all clad in fashionable riding coats and breeches, saddle their steeds. The lady, riding side-saddle, gracefully adjusts her gown as she waits for her mount to be readied. Fox hounds, their ears perked and tails wagging, accompany the party, eagerly anticipating the chase. The manor, a symbol of wealth and status, stands proudly in the background, its windows adorned with intricate stone carvings and draped in heavy velvet curtains. The surrounding landscape is dotted with trees, their leaves a vibrant green, and the sun casts a warm, golden glow over the scene. This historical print, created in 1821 by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us to a time when the pursuit of the fox was a favorite pastime of the nobility. The intricate details of the clothing, the horses, and the manor itself, as well as the lively energy of the hunting party, make this a captivating and authentic representation of life in the 1820s.
